Caravana Cubana

The concept of the Caravan Cuban project came in 1998 at the Los Angeles memorial for public radio broadcaster Emilio Vandenedes, who was a long-time supporter of Cuban music on his public radio show in L.A. and Miami. At the service, a who's who of Cuban artists performed with such passion that the music caught the attention of filmmaker George Hernandez, who facilitated bringing many of the artists together to record on the project. Many of the players hadn't worked with each other since their days with Louis Armstrong in the 1940s.
